2014-142 ______________________

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus to the United States Court of Federal Claims in No. 1:14-cv-00277-NBF, Judge Nancy B. Firestone. ______________________

ON MOTION ______________________

Before REYNA, BRYSON, and TARANTO, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM. ORDER Mark C. Jackson petitions for a writ of mandamus re- lating to his complaint brought before the United States Court of Federal Claims. On July 23, 2014, Jackson filed a notice of appeal, docketed as 2014-5121, from the judgment of the Court of Federal Claims dismissing his complaint for lack of juris- diction. A party who seeks a writ bears the burden of proving that he has no other means of obtaining the relief desired. Mallard v. U.S. Dist.

2 IN RE JACKSON

(1989). Because Jackson may raise arguments concerning his case in his appeal, mandamus relief is not appropriate. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED THAT: (1) The petition for a writ of mandamus is denied. (2) All pending motions are denied as moot.
